herbst cabaret

Production specifics
Commissioned and produced by steirischer herbst ʼ23

The problem with class is nobody really knows to which class they truly belong. Barbara Juch’s new show for herbst cabaret takes a unique look at social ascriptions and boundaries in Austria—a country where the ruse of equal opportunity faces off against old wealth. Juch explains what ironing embroidered underpants has to do with book deals, why well-told origin stories so often come with old money in plastic bags, on which finger noble families in Graz wear their signet ring, and what it means to keep paying cash for your entire life.
